Chapter 303 The fifth floor of the ruins (4000)
All in all, it was a minor misunderstanding.
Sheng Feinan and Feng Liuskaxiu had different experiences. After the three of them got lost at the corner, Sheng Feinan was always alone.
I have never encountered a disguised scale monster.
So along the way, he always thought that it was the role of the ruins mechanism that caused the three of them to be separated and isolated without knowing it.
Sheng Feinan was on guard all the way, but did not encounter any danger. He just got a little lost when changing passages. After wandering around for a long time, I found my direction again and met two people here.
Unexpectedly, Kaxiu suddenly took action and punched almost with all his strength.
He was originally good at swordsmanship and whipping, and his strength and speed were incomparable to Ka Xiu's, plus he was too hasty in blocking. Only then did he land a single punch, which led to a deeper misunderstanding.
Fortunately, Sheng Feinan's injury was not serious. But the first punch he didn't block hit his chest, causing some internal injuries.
Card Xiu used a little bit of life vibration energy to completely recover the slightest bit of injury. While they were healing, the three of them also talked to each other about their experiences for just half an hour. The richest one is undoubtedly Ka Xiu. There are at least four or five batches of scaly monsters disguised as hallucinations to deceive him, and they can even adjust according to the situation.
Rather than being static, it seems to be wise.
In the past, the few people encountered along the way were alien beasts driven by instinct, but now there seemed to be some changes.
The three of them became more vigilant.
There is only the last stretch before the entrance to the fourth floor. During this period of time, no hallucinations or dangers have come to the door.
Card Xiu and others quickly found their target, which was an underground cave similar to a botanical garden. The top is a patch of jagged rocks and damp moss in the crevices. Below is a large vine-like plant with lush foliage.
Large heart-shaped leaves clustered together, densely covering the ground. There are yellow-green weeds growing in the gaps.
It's quite humid here, with a sultry heat, like summer. The air was filled with a strange mixture of rotten roots and the fragrance of leaves. It wasn't unpleasant, but it definitely wasn't pleasant either. Ka Xiu took a deep breath and opened his eyes.
"There is a certain amount of toxins in the air, but they are quite weak and can only affect ordinary people. The spikes on the leaves of these vines on the ground may also contain toxins, so be careful..."
he reminded. The demon-modified lungs can not only filter toxins and impurities, but also serve as air quality detectors.
"It's better to be careful, we just hold our breath."
Feng Liusi glanced at Sheng Feinan. The two of them immediately entered a state of turtle breath, and the rise and fall of their chests slowed down quickly. When you reach the inhuman realm of a fighter, you can easily hold your breath for more than tens of minutes at a time and still be able to maintain normal body movements.
But if it is a fierce battle.
This time will definitely be greatly reduced.
"Walk."
Sheng Feinan gestured to Kaxiu and nodded.
"etc."
Ka Xiu raised his hand and suddenly grabbed a claw on the wall of the cave next to him. It dug out a large piece of stone like a bucket.
He weighed it two or three times and shook it out.
The stone accelerated in the air and hit the cave floor covered with plant roots, causing a low muffled sound.
Several more rocks flew over quickly, smashing the overlapping green leaves into pieces, and black and yellow soil burst out from underneath.
"There should be no traps, and it's not empty down there." Ka Xiu nodded slightly, and then said to the two people behind him: "Let's go..."
Everyone entered the botanical garden, which was about the size of several football fields, and walked through a path among the green leaves.
Keep going all the way, until you reach the middle position.
Plant roots all over the ground suddenly squirmed weirdly like snakes, each root moving quickly, flashing dark green light in the air. These vines rotated around the location of Ka Xiu and the other three, forming a spiraling cone. Inside, poisonous spikes sprouted out.
It was as long as a finger, and the end was glowing purple.
When the cone contracts, it must be squeezed inward quickly.
Stupid!
A long spiral sword with black flames burning on its surface was slashed out, and the sword light suddenly spread to a distance of more than ten meters.
Cutting off the dense vine roots, the juice splashes.
Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!
On the surface of the room-sized cone, four rays of sword light shot out from the inside, tearing apart the fragile cage at once.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
Three figures calmly jumped out of the fire.
One of them holds a sword with a broad blade and an astonishing length of 1.8 meters. There was an outline of black flames that flickered on the blade, undulating slightly and rotating at high speed like a chainsaw.
Every time the man swung the giant cross sword, a condensed sword light cut through the air, tearing and cutting the surrounding plants.
The roots of the vines, which could have been said to be quite tough, were like tofu in front of the sword's edge, breaking into pieces at the touch and having no effect in blocking the siege. The three of them got away from the cave easily.
All that was left was a mess.
At the end of the cave is a dark cave. Card Xiu and others walked in without hesitation and ran in the darkness.
The sound of footsteps is getting further and further away, and the sound of water flowing is getting closer and closer.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The crisp sound of water reached Kashu's ears, and there was a moist smell in the air. There should be an underground river ahead.
The three of them quickened their pace and suddenly stopped after a few turns.
A stone at the end of the exit was pressed against by the toe of a shoe.
With a splash, he fell into the underground river that was flowing all the way down, and the splashing water didn't make any waves.
Kaxiu looked to the left and right sides. This was a rock tunnel eroded by an underground river, with a diameter of about ten meters.
The river water rushes rapidly and powerfully from left to right.
"According to the map, this is a river that runs through the lower three levels of the ruins. We can reach the fourth level by following the river all the way down." Sheng Feinan said after looking at the map.
"No, skip the fourth floor and go directly to the fifth floor."
Ka Xiu’s eyes flashed.
"Go directly to the fifth floor? However, the fifth floor connected to the underground river is the most dangerous area marked on the map."
Sheng Feinan frowned slightly.
"I know, but there are more dangerous things chasing us behind us. Do you hear me?" Kaxiu suddenly pressed his left ear against the cold cave wall and looked at Sheng Feinan and the other two.
Feng Liusi also immediately moved up to sense the movement.
"Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss..."
The sound of electricity? No, it's a grinding sound. It was the sound of insect limbs rubbing against the rock wall, and those scarab beetles were following!
They are the white torrent sweeping through the ruins of Yaqaba!
As a sweeper, regularly erase any anomalies.
The faces of the three people all changed. It seems that they delayed too much on the third floor and were finally caught up.
If we enter the fourth level step by step, there will be various traps and alien species in front of us, and even more perverted insect swarms behind us!
Even if the three of them are strong fighters, they may die in danger again and again.
So just skip the fourth floor and go to the fifth floor.
In this way, with the entire fourth floor as a barrier, Kaxiu and the other two people do not have to worry about the terrifying insect swarm chasing them for the time being, and can concentrate on dealing with the dangers on the fifth floor. Although the area entering the fifth floor from the underground river was marked on the map as the most dangerous on the fifth floor, the three of them still felt that the scarab tide was even more dangerous!
"Don't worry about it, hurry up and get there."
Ka Xiu reminded.
Immediately, the three people took off at the exit and jumped to the opposite rock wall. The body is like a spider climbing, five fingers can easily be inserted into the uneven rock cracks, and the body is pulled up.
Such an action is not unusual, and some rock climbers can do it. Card Xiu and others are naturally not a problem either.
They are unwilling to enter the river unless necessary.
It's not because he's afraid of what's in the darkness underneath, but because punches in the river will be restricted by the current, and there's nowhere to put his force. This feeling is not friendly to fighters.
Therefore, the three of them chose to jump all the way left and right.
Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...
Above the underground river, there are three figures in mid-air like shadows, refracting back and forth on the cave walls on both sides. They move very fast, their legs are like springs, and their ten fingers are like mountaineering picks. He was obviously doing difficult rising and falling movements, but his speed all the way down was faster than ordinary people running.
Just like that, three minutes passed.
Card Xiu estimated that he had fallen quite a distance.
Click, click, click!
The three of them suddenly stopped, one hand stuck on the rock crevice. He turned around and looked at an entrance on the opposite rock wall, which was dark. That was the passage on the fourth floor, the entrance originally planned.
But now, I can only give it up temporarily.
Each level of the Yakaba ruins has more than one entrance to the next level. Kaxiu and others planned a suitable route. Now the situation is unexpected and we are no longer adaptable. We should make changes.
"Keep going down."
Card Xiu took a deep look and immediately took the lead and descended down the river tunnel. Feng Liusi Sheng Feinan also followed.
Two minutes later.
The three of them stopped. The road ahead narrowed, and its diameter shrank by about half. This also resulted in the channel being completely flooded with water.
In short, everyone has to get in the water.
"The entrance to the fifth floor is seventy meters below. It should be a cave flooded by water. Pay attention." Card Xiu reminded, and then he jumped into the water.
However, Sheng Feinan and Feng Liusi remained motionless.
Ten seconds later, Kaxiu emerged from the bottom of the water.
"There are no toxins in the river for now, come down."
Plop, plop twice.
The three of them drifted with the current and were brought into the tunnel by the turbulent and rolling river water. After walking for a while, Card Xiu would occasionally reach out and grab the rock wall to slow down his movement.
Half a minute later.
Card Xiu and others found the hole in the water.
Wow!
There was an undercurrent surging above the tunnel, as if something huge was squeezing down at an accelerated speed, and a black shadow as thick as a bucket collided.
Card Xiu pushed Feng Liusi and the two of them in the water, signaling to leave first. He grabbed the edge of the hole with one hand, clenched the other hand into a fist, and pushed forward under the river with terrifying force.
The speed was fierce and fast, and a cavity of two or three meters long was directly drawn. He punched the black shadow in the head with a single punch.
This blow instantly shattered the tough scales, and a large pool of green blood filled the water. The black shadow was in pain, struggling violently, and swung its tail wildly against the wall of the cave, making a thumping sound.
After Kaxiu punched him, he didn't even bother to throw in a second punch.
He turned around and swam towards the hole on the fifth floor.
After all, the water limits some of the power. If it were in the air, his punch would be enough to interrupt the opponent.
Diving upwards along the entrance passage, Ka Xiu swam more than ten meters away and suddenly saw two figures waiting at the corner. The three of them nodded in the water and swam up together.
"Crash..."
Bubbles suddenly rose from the surface of a room-sized pool. Then three figures emerged from the water and landed on the ground.
Their clothes were damp and dripping with water. Ka Xiu and others were about to use their kung fu to dry their bodies when their expressions suddenly changed.
A burning sensation, a pins and needles-like pain. There is a similar feeling coming from every part of the body, every part of the skin.
Ka Xiu saw that the body of Feng Liusi Sheng Feinan opposite him burst into flames, spreading from his chest to his face.
As soon as his thoughts changed, he immediately guessed the reason.
The underground river water is not non-toxic. Instead, it comes into contact with the air of the fifth-level ruins, causing a special poisonous flame to erupt.
Burns every corner of the body's skin.
In other words, there is no shortcut like underground rivers from the third to the fifth floor. Tricks come at a price.
"The eyes are starting to catch fire..."
Next to him, Feng Liusi said calmly. He opened his eyes silently, a faint black flame burning quietly on the surface of his pupils.
Eyes are burned, is it painful? Of course it's painful.
But this was not unbearable for the three of them, they just suffered some physical punishment. There used to be a school of ascetic monks among the esoteric martial practitioners, who were very happy with the pain.
Feng Liusi and others cannot reach that level, but they are fighters. Their tenacity and endurance along the way are extraordinary. They can continue to fight even if their bodies are broken.
Of course, with Ka Xiu here, there is no need to fight with injuries.
The three of them quickly sat down cross-legged, each using the life vibration energy in their bodies to repair the damage. The confrontation between the nourishing liquid and the burning flame was a two-minute tug-of-war.
In the end, the poisonous flame was extinguished.
Life-shaking energy swept through, repairing the damage.
After another minute or two, Ka Xiu and others opened their eyes.
The pupils that had been blinded by the flames suddenly returned to their original state, and even became clearer because of their new life. The pain in the body and skin is swept away, bringing a sense of freshness and clarity.
Sheng Feinan also stopped picking his crotch. This was the second time he lost his composure. Once there was fish, and once there was fire. It can be said that Sheng Feinan is the most unlucky among the three.
After some rest, Kaxiu and others recalibrated the map. After confirming the specific location, they saw a passage in front of them.
When you leave the passage, you will face the most dangerous area on the fifth floor.
The place where Nan Dou's secret is located is close to this area. It can be said to be the only good news that a few people have come into contact with.
Ta-ta-ta...
Three footsteps left the cave where the pool was located.
At the same time, on the third floor of the ruins, a large number of stone beetles gathered into a gray-white river and rushed into the passage on the fourth floor.
The mist at the top of the tunnel surged, floating and spinning. The white mist gradually condensed into a blurry image.
This is a looming human figure.
It floated in mid-air, but the insect tide below turned a blind eye to it. The air flow floated, and there seemed to be a voice that sounded like a man whispering softly: "Sssssssss... Kaxiu...ssssssss..."
"Go...hiss...get...hiss...Nandou..."
